Ecobee4 Review: The First Smart Thermostat with Alexa

Tom's Guide

VoiceGenie, a solution that allows most wireless headphones to utilize the power of Amazon’s Alexa on the go

VoiceGenie could change the way we interact with the devices already firmly embedded in our lives -- and it could make voice assistants just as integral.

CNet

Amazon is relying on voice models that are key components of Sensory’s speech recognition suite.

Business Intelligence

Sensory is enabling what it calls “wakeup words” — that is, terms and phrases that trigger the always-on listening that is a hallmark of assistants like Google Now and Siri — on devices that integrate Amazon’s Alexa.

Digital Trends

Sensory, which focuses on voice recognition, teams up with Alexa's creators to make it easier for third-party developers to create voice-activated devices.

CNET

Sensory won Best Innovation in Deep Learning at the Alconics awards; First Place in Mobile Security and Privacy at the CTIA Emerging Technology (E-Tech) Awards; and Star Performer at the Speech Industry Awards, where CEO Todd Mozer also won a Luminary Award.

Say out loud 'GoPro, start recording' and the camera starts recording, no fuzzing with buttons.

Geoffrey Fowler, Wall Street Journal

…it works well even at a distance. You just shout "okay Garmin," the lights on the camera will blink, and then you can tell it to do things like start or stop recording, or take a photo.

The Verge

Huawei also created this cool feature to help you find your phone more quickly. It’s called voice wake up, and you can ask your phone “Where are you?” or some other phrase, and your phone will respond, saying, “I’m here,” and play music until you find it.

Malarie Gokey, digitaltrends.com

The best upgrade to the controls, though, has to be voice control...The Hero5 Black understands seven languages.

Brent Rose, Wired

Most notably though, this new shooter supports voice commands, letting you control it via phrases such as, ‘Okay Garmin, start recording.’

Engadget

GoPro added voice controls for starting and stopping recordings, snapping photos and even tagging highlights in your clips by saying "That was sick!" and "Oh sh*t!" It works really well, and there are currently 10 commands and support for seven languages.

So if the cloud’s not private, how can your TV respond to voice commands? Simple. Use speech-recognition services that are baked right into the TV – no cloud required.

Ted Kritsonis, Digital Trends

Voice commands are where both Hero 5 cameras flex their smarts.

Geoffrey Fowler, Wall Street Journal

One of the coolest features on the Garmin VIRB Ultra 30 is the ability to use your voice to control the camera.

ZDNet

Of particular interest is the fact that TrulySecure is an on-device biometric identification system that does not rely on a connection to the cloud. Many users prefer this approach because they do not wish for their biometric data to be replicated and stored outside of their personal devices.

Max Maxfield, EE Times

TrulySecure works by watching and listening as you repeat a passphrase a couple times. The system tracks the way your lips move and registers the unique attributes of your voice.

Josh Ong, The Next Web

Given Qualcomm’s prominence as a mobile technology developer and the technological advancement on display in its latest offerings, the partnership reflects very well on the confidence the company has in Sensory’s technology.

Speech recognition company Sensory is expanding into the computer vision space with a new smartphone security client that uses both voice and face recognition to lock down your phone.

MotoX is a fantastic phone with many great features. My favorite is Touchless Control… Ask it the weather, to call a friend or do a Google search, and it'll just do it, and you never have to touch the phone.

Pete Pachal, Mashable

Sensory is continuing to exhibit leadership in handsfree control by allowing a secure multimodal biometric that doesn’t require touching devices to make them work.

Dan Miller, Opus Research

Touchless mode...is the most useful feature [on Moto X].

David Pogue, NY Times

The defining feature of the Moto X is it’s a virtual ear, always straining to hear its owner’s voice say three magic words that will rouse it to action: "Okay, Google Now."

Steven Levy, WIRED

The phone [Moto X] has all the standard features expected of today’s top smartphone, with a twist: the ability to control the phone by talking to it, without lifting a finger.

The New York Times

The voice-response system, called BlueGenie is surprisingly accurate for such a small device. It's better than the voice system in my Blackberry phone.

Sensory, the leader in on-device AI technology will be providing the first public demo of its in-app virtual teller at FinovateFall 2017 in New York City. Sensory’s bank teller app is a proof-of-concept demo and application for Sensory’s advanced embedded artificial intelligence (AI) technologies working together to provide bank and financial institution customers a lifelike bank teller experience directly on their smartphones and tablets, without the need and risk of sending valuable information to the cloud. The demo application will be released for banks to test and incorporate into their apps in Q4 2017. This turnkey solution includes application source code for bank customization and technology modules for Sensory’s complete product line, including: TrulySecure™, TrulyNatural™ and TrulyHandsfree™.

“Sensory’s virtual bank teller demo is a great example of why interest in Finovate continues to grow year-over-year,” said Greg Palmer, VP of Finovate. “Our goal is to help our audience of key decision makers from banks and financial institutions learn about new technologies that are empowering the future of banking. With the growing interest in AI, chatbots and biometric authentication in the banking industry, Sensory’s virtual bank teller offers much appeal to progressive banks looking for new and innovative ways to improve the safety and customer experience of mobile banking.”

Sensory’s speech-based natural language user interface is powered by TrulyNatural, Sensory’s embedded large vocabulary speech recognizer with hands-free wakeup from TrulyHandsfree technology. This allows users to interact with the app by voice, saying the kinds of things they’d say to a human bank teller. A talking avatar with accurate lip synchronization and high-quality text-to-speech synthesis is added so that the app can speak its responses back to the user in a natural sounding and looking manner.

The virtual teller experience is made very secure by integrating TrulySecure, a FIDO-certified fusion of face and voice biometric authentication technologies. Requiring no additional hardware or specialized biometric scanners, TrulySecure provides the use of face and voice biometrics for convenient, quick and secure user authentication – The bank teller simply looks at the user and hears their voice to confirm identity.

Like all Sensory technologies, the in-app virtual teller runs completely on device, making it fast, reliable and much more secure because no private data needs to be sent to the cloud. Furthermore, by integrating the technologies from a single source banks do not need to go shopping for various components from alternative players. This helps reduce risk and cost in deployments.

“Not all banking apps are simple to navigate. Sometimes adding security detracts from the user experience,” said Todd Mozer, CEO of Sensory. “Taking what we’ve learned from more than two decades of revolutionizing how people interact with technology, we’ve created a smart, convenient and very secure user interface for mobile banking apps that emulates the experience of interacting with a human bank teller. Now, with a virtual teller on any mobile phone, users can check their balance, wire money, apply for a loan and more by simply speaking to the virtual teller in their banking app.”

Sensory will be presenting its in-app virtual teller demo on the main stage at FinovateFall 2017, held at the New York Hilton Midtown, on September 11-14, 2017.
